Package: libgtk2-ruby1.8
Version: 0.11.0-2
Hi,
This is a bug that happened on a script located here:
http://yusei.ragondux.com/files/gnocatan/camato-0_6_6.tar.gz
I tried to isolate the problem (see below) but a full description might
help.
I'm using a hash for internationalization: in the file fr.rb, one has a
hash for the french translation of the strings. The encoding in this
file is ISO-8859-1, and the hash looks like this:
$locale = {
"Untitled - Camato" => "Sans titre - Camato",
'Brick' => 'Argile',
'Grain' => 'Blé',
'Lumber' => 'Bois',
...
A file like this one is chosen at runtime and included to get the
translations. That worked till 'recently' (I'd say that it worked with
ruby 1.8.1 packages), but now I get SyntaxErrors:
$ ./camato
./camato:48:in `require': ./fr.rb:37: syntax error (SyntaxError)
'Lumber' => 'Bois',
^
./fr.rb:37: syntax error
'Lumber' => 'Bois',
^ from ./camato:48
After some trials, I found that the error comes just after every string
that end with "é" (é). I suppose that it confuses the parser, and
it doesn't see the quote or double-quote after that character. In fact,
if I add two spaces after the ending "é", everything works (looks like a
Unicode problem).
However, the exact same hash table in a separate script works well
untill I require 'gtk2'. For example, if fr.rb contains a hash like the
one above:
---
require 'gtk2'
line = 'Marché'
print line, "\n"
hash = { 'test' => 'Blé', 'test2' => 'AAA' }
require('fr.rb')
print $locale['Grain'], "\n"
---
This fails in the 'require' instruction, and not before, as I'd have
expected.
I'm using ruby1.8 version 1.8.2-2, on unstable.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] but the problem remains with something else
Thanks in advance,
Yusei
